  6. Existing Conjunctive Use • Irrigation area • Rainfed area • Personal GW pumps

  7. Study flowchart

  8. GW use ??Field data collection (pumping behavior)

  9. Layer Classification Flood Deposit & Low Terrain High Terrain

  10. GW Model (MODFLOW) 2 Layers Conceptual Model 10 km. Upper : 320 grids Lower : 346 grids 10 km Upper Layer(Semi-confined) Lower Layer(Confined)

  11. Recent Flood Plain Deposits Low Terrace Deposits High Terrace Deposits Rock Upper Layer thickness 40-100 m. Lower Layer thickness 100-300 m.

  12. Calculation Method • Steady Calibration : 2003 • Transient Calibration : 1993-2003 • Model Verification :2003-2005 1.Steady Statefor Hydraulic Conductivity 2.Transient State for Specific Storage 1993 2003 2005 3.Verification
